The trouble is, Blogger doesn’t support a number of HTML tags in this section, among them are the very useful <hr>
and <br>
tags. You’ll find that no method of using, say, the <hr>
tag will work correctly. So, here’s what I do to get around this issue.
Instead of <br>
If I want newlines and can’t use the <br>
tag, I put paragraph tags, <pr> </pr>
around the line of text I want to stand on it’s own line. You cannot, however just put together <pr> </pr>
to get separation. That sucks, but it should allow you to separate your footer text from your blog. This is not perfect unfortunately, but it may be the only way to get some spacing between your blog and the footer.
Instead of <hr>
If you want the horizontal rule, you can’t use the <hr>
tag, but what I do is surround a bunch of underscores with the paragraph tag. it will look something like this:
<pr> <hr> </pr>
These are my suggestions, I haven’t tested all possibilities, do you have any other that you have tested?
